Peter Parker is a science fanatic orphan who lives with his Aunt May and Uncle Ben. A typical teenage boy who feels left out and a bit nerdy, Peter and his fellow school mates attend a field trip at Oscorp. Peter is then bitten by a radioactive spider. Feeling very sick due to the Venom, Peter rushes to his room and passes out. The next day he wakes up with not only super strength but also the ability to climb up walls, just like a spider. Thus the begging of the very well known Spiderman. Peter Parker tries to maintain his identity hidden due to all of his enemies like Dr. Octopus, Green Goblin, Electro, ect. But a few catch on to who Spiderman really is thus putting Peter's loved ones in great danger.
"Whatever life holds in store for me, I will never forget these words: "With great power comes great responsibility." This is my gift, my curse. Who am I? I'm Spiderman."

Chapter 4: Statuses and Roles - Page 116-117
Status - A potion in a social hierarchy that comes with a set of expectations. (Examples: President, Mom, Teacher, ect)
Spiderman is a very unique superhero. He was neither born with nor created his super powers. So you can never really classify him as a ascribed, embodied, or achieved status. Ascribed is when you are born with something (race or Gender). Embodied is when it is located in your physical self (beauty). Achieved is when you have earned something (hobby or skill). How he became a Spiderman was actually by accident. He was on a field trip when he was bitten by a radio active spider. When he found out about his new powers he wasn't quiet sure what to do, in fact he was actually pretty scared. It was when his Uncle Ben was murdered that he knew what he must do. He knew it was his duty to keep New York safe from harm. While trying to keep his identity safe from his family and enemies because like any villain, you would want to cause pain to the superhero any way possible. Spiderman doesn't have a very cocky attitude, he is just very confident in my opinion.
Midtown High School student Peter Parker is a science nerd orphan living with Uncle Ben and Aunt May. Peter Parker gains his super powers by getting bitten by a radioactive common house spider. Peter Parker gain the power of super strength, reflexes and balance. Can climb almost any surface and a subconscious sense of danger called "spidy sense". Thus the making of the friendly neighborhood spider man was born. By using his technical smarts he invited weapons and equipment that went along with his new super powers. Creating an insane spider man custom to keep his identity a secret from his loves ones and his enemies.
Chapter 4: The Self and Interaction
Role Conflict:Experienced when we occupy two or more roles with contradictory expectation.(pg.117)
Spider Man is notorious for putting his love life into his Super Hero life. Juggling his girlfriend and superhero role.

Not even with Gwen Stacy, his friend Harry Osborn was part of the mix with Peter Parker super hero life.Harry was sick and ask peter for help. He didn't want to help cause he knew he would not make if they have went with the procedure. Harry figure out that his friend was spider man and seek evil task on him. By attacking his love ones. Trying to deal with Electro a super villain at the time Harry Osborn linked up with Electro trying to destroy Spider man. They had an evil scheme to take out peter girlfriend Gwen Stacy.

Playing all these roles can cause contradictory. Your job is to protect and you end up killing your Girlfriend. Like his Uncle Ben said, "Great powers comes great responsibility".
Chapter 6: DevianceStigma- Any Physical or social attribute that devalues a person or group'sidentity and that may exclude those who are devalued from normal social interaction (161) The Amazing Spider man being a Stigma? Another definition for Stigma is a mark of disgrace associated with a particular circumstance, quality, or person.

Chapter 8: Race and Ethnicity as Lived Experience
Embodied Identity - Those elements of identity that are generated through others' perceptions of our physical traits. (P. 226)
This perfect for George Stacy ( Gwen Father ) Situation with Spider Man in the beginning. Captain Stacy was the man leading the investigation into Spider Man's vigilantism. Seeing Spider Man and seeing what he is capable of doing. George Stacy was too eager to capture and put Spider-Man behind bars. His daughter starts to date Peter Parker. He and Peter got into an argument while eating dinner at the Stacy home. Peter believed that Spider Man was helping the police and bringing criminals to justice. On the other hand George believed that Spider Man is to be nothing more than a masked vigilante. Captain Stacy and hisComrads went to stop the Lizard on top of Oscorp Tower , only to be joined by Spider Man. Spider Man was briefly captured by police, after removing his mask, he soon sprang up and freed himself from his restrains. He then began to take on the police assault on him (while at the same time trying to keep his face concealed). But as Stacy held him at gunpoint, Spider Man was forced to turn and face him, revealing to Stacy that he was really Peter Parker. Knowing that Peter is on his side, Stacy let him go and followed him to Oscorp after learning Gwen is there. As the Lizard prepared to kill Spider Man, Stacy arrived with a shotgun and saves him but, suddenly, the Lizard struck Stacy with its sharp claws, mortally wounding him. After Peter defeats the Lizard, Peter finds the dying captain. Stacy admitted that he was wrong about Peter and that city does need him. He then warns Peter that with being a superhero, he will make enemies and that people will get hurt and it will come with sacrifices.

With this new This ne Information he was able to make his suit electric proof and have the ability to turn it against him and ultimately Blowing up Electro.

Chapter 4: The Self and InteractionRole - The set if behaviors expected of someone because of hid or her status (pg117)Peter Parker is expected to be the good guy and save lives. Reason why he is Spider-Man. So really Spider-man is expected to save lives because people only know Spider-Man. Not Peter Parker. Reason why because people already seen Spider-Man saves lives. They already seen him put his life in danger to save others. To a point where the people realize that he is a super hero and they expect him to be this way for a while.Its a daily routine. Thats his role now. To save lives. To be there when there is trouble. People trust in him to always be there and protect them. That is his role. We and himself expect to be there no matter what.
